There's a few lines here I really love "Must be hard to be a lover, with an empty, hollow chest" "Cheating on a human's not like cheating on a test. Repeating what you're doing, like you train to be the best" I love those lines. There are a few line, though, that I'm really not feelin. The last 2 lines of the the fourth stanza, I don't know what it is. I don't think 'puppets' fits here. Also, the first 2 lines in the fifth stanza, maybe it's just me, but everything else is so strong and I feel like talking about layering filters can just date this so quickly, you know what I mean? Like in 20 years those lines won't hold up
Awesome. Thank you! And if someones reading this in 20 years that would be great. As for the puppets thing, any ideas? Open for suggestions.
I don't know, maybe dolls?
"Manipulate the givers, make them dance around like dolls.
Retaliate on takers, don’t give chances, fuck them all."
I don't know. Play around with it. Just try different words and phrases until you find some you vibe with.
I changed it up. Thanks again for helping me out with that. The more I read it and played it on guitar the better it flowed and sat well with me. I really appreciate that and you taking the time. Really cool of you.
I like that. I'll try to come up with something. Very good idea!
wow.. I know someone like this... It really cuts deep and also does an excellent job of describing this person. You don't say "you're vain, you're shallow..(among other things)", but it comes across so effortlessly with the story details you've chosen to include. As a storyteller, great job. In fact, great on everything. It certainly has the flow of a good song. No real critique, but there was a typo:
"Must it hard to be a lover, with an empty, hollow chest." I think the "it" should have been "be".
